    I generally don’t get too emotionally invested in characters in entertainment that make it personal, but Bester was one of the few that made it through my guard. WK did such a good job. I despised Bester, that smug arrogance and position that made the character essentially untouchable really ground my gears. I knew he was going to make me vicariously angry when he showed up. He was the Nazi that remorselessly killed people in camps by day and went home to a family at night like nothing was wrong…just another Tuesday. Good writing and great acting.

      If teeps actually existed, then I think we mundanes would essentially be like a disabled person who is missing a sense. I’ve always felt like that would be obvious if it was actually reality.

      And so all of the Psy Corps’s assholery seems even worse. Not just a Nazi killing people in camps, but specifically killing disabled people.
